I see many rooms that are furnished beautifully, yet are lacking the finishing touches to pull it all together.  My clients look to me to make that completed feeling for the room.

In today’s article, I will show you how to add the finishing touches to your space without breaking the bank.

TOSS PILLOWS

Pull the colors of the room together with fabric pillows (18-20″ square works best).  Try to mis pattern, texture and patterns against solids.

PLANT LIFE

If you have a green thumb, live plants will add beauty and energy to your room.  If you just can’t keep a plant alive, there are lovely silk alternatives that look so real.

AREA RUG

To anchor your seating area, consider a rug.  It is comfortable under foot (you can even layer an area rug over your wall to wall carpet.  Choose one that can be cleaned easily if there will be food eaten in the space.
